Which Fade Is Right For You?Murray Hill Barbershop Questions, Answered
A skin fade (or bald fade) is a fade haircut where the sides and back are blended all the way down to bare skin, then graduated up into the length on top. It gives the sharpest contrast of any fade and is our most requested style in Murray Hill.
Tell us two things: how low or high you want the fade to start (low, mid, or high), and how much length you want left on top. Bring a photo if you have one. Your barber will confirm the plan before picking up the clippers.
